1) Always wash Black/Drk Blue slacks by themselves (or with other dark clothes ONLY)
2) Woolite makes a Laundry Detergent that helps Blk Clothes retain their "Brand New" color.
3). A fabric softener like Downey helps remove lint during Washing and prevents `Laundry Lints from attaching to Static Filled Clothes.
4). Most importantly .... If your Washer & Dryer are not `Fairly New` ... Then this whitish cast that is being left on your slacks.... may be due to poorly operating equipment. The type of sediment you describe is usually due to poor rinsing and/or not using a softener. **Be sure to empty your lint filter!!

Always wash black clothes separately from light clothes and never put towels or anything of "fluffy" kind in the washer with blacks. Use special detergent for darks. Turn your clothes inside out. Make sure you clean filters before you dry your black clothes. Sometimes even these steps don`t help, so then you have to use lint brush and sticky rollers...Also if there is more synthetic that cotton in your black clothes fabric it helps to stay "lint-free"….

My black clothes, or should I say dark clothes always come out of the washing machine with a white residue on them. If I get the lint brush and wipe off when wet will generally help but most of the time I don`t catch it until they are dry and then it looks terrible and I have to wash again and again. I use tide powder but I don`t think it is that ?any suggestions?

Someone said: The best product for this is Woolite for dark clothing. This was made especially to help maintain the true color of black and dark clothes and is gentler even if clothing does not require delicate wash.

I have the same problem with the residue on most of my dark laundry as well. I use minimal amounts of liquid detergent and have been adding 1/2 vinegar to all my loads for weeks and the problem still exists. I never had this issue with my old Maytag I used for 25yrs, but since we purchased a new Maytag washer, I have this awful problem.

Someone said: I have the same problem with my Miele Front-loader. Do you have options to change the water level? Put it on high water when you do your darks and also see if there is a filter that needs cleaning. I also now use liquid detergent as i thought it was powder from the old detergent i was using. Also, i find that the marks will rub off if you use a dampened cloth, but i understand you dont want to be doing that to every piece of dark clothing you wash... i also turn my darks inside out to cheat...... hope this helps. if all else fails contact the manufacturer to see what they suggest. Good Luck
